To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

All documents related to the late performance artist Carolee Schneemann (born 12 October 1939, died 6 March 2019).

Please conduct a search of the Central Records System, including but not limited to the Electronic Surveillance (ELSUR) Indices, the Microphone Surveillance (MISUR) Indices, the Physical Surveillance (FISUR) Indices, and the Technical Surveillance (TESUR) Indices, for both main-file records and cross-reference records for all relevant names, individuals, agencies and companies at FBI Headquarters. Please also conduct a search for records at the Alexandria Records Center. If any potentially responsive records have been destroyed and/or transferred to NARA, then I request copies of the destruction or transfer slips as well as any other documentation relating to, mentioning or describing said transfer or destruction, to include but not be limited to confirmation that the Bureau has no other copies of said records. If previously released records are available, then I request a rolling release consisting of those records while additional records are located and processed for release.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Nicholas Marritz

From: Nicholas Marritz

I hereby appeal the Bureau's closure of my case No. 1431412-000. In response to my FOIA request, the Bureau stated that it had searched "the places reasonably expected to have records." Without knowing what places were searched, I cannot know whether the Bureau's search was sufficient to satisfy my request. Also, my asked for not only main-file records, but also cross-reference records.

I ask that the Bureau conduct the search as I requested it in my original request, inform me of what it looked for, tell me where it looked. Any responsive records encountered during this search should, of course, be produced.

Thank you.
